Founder Story
Hi, I’m Deborah — founder of DearMe and mum to a little girl who flipped my world upside down (and made it better in the messiest way).
When she was born, everything changed — sleep, identity, safety, certainty. I wanted to capture memories and journal to make sense of it all, but motherhood wasn’t stillness. It was chaos stitched together with love. I always had my phone in my hand, but a paper diary didn’t stand a chance.
So I started using voice notes, scribbles in my phone, and screenshots of moments I didn’t want to forget. I discovered a need for a journaling app that could help mothers like me navigate through the post partum chaos.
And slowly, the idea for DearMe took shape — a space mothers could turn to for small moments of grounding, honesty, and emotional clarity.
Why DearMe Exists
Motherhood is intimate. Joyful and raw. Lonely and full.
There’s more advice, more tools, more noise—but less space to process what’s actually happening. Thoughts are interrupted. Emotions build up. Clarity is hard to find.
Most solutions get this wrong. They expect time, consistency, and energy—things you don’t have. They ask you to track, write, share, or keep up. So you stop using them.
DearMe takes a different approach.
It works within the reality of early motherhood. You can check in quickly, speak instead of write, and keep everything private. No pressure, no performance.
Over time, things start to make more sense. You feel clearer, steadier, and more like yourself again.
